Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
A construction manager will be involved during design and early planning, rather than waiting until the project is fully designed and bid. The committee said this approach could improve cost estimates, allow earlier purchasing and phasing, and reduce disruption while the high school remains in use. The committee also discussed roof and heat-pump eligibility, structural reviews at Plymouth River and South Elementary schools, and new security controls for remote meetings.
